    New bits from VT

    Right after my angiush with my knockin from the front that is being diagnosed as we speak at VT, they are (very kindly) doing a 90'000mile service and whilst i was there they just happened to have a brand new BSR cat back exhaust for my T4 lying around in a box looking lonely and in need of an owner, so................ im goin to pick it up the car in about 30 mins with my new exhaust so when its on i'll let ya all know how good it is

    Once again a marvelous job being done by Hamish, Nat and Adam at VT

    Thanks all

    Hehe, excellent, "just happened to have"

    Looking at your "Done" list i notice you've had a brake upgrade from them....how is it ? I'm really tempted to go and get this done from them at the same time as a RICA upgrade.

    Do you have any problems with your brakes from cold ?

    Thanks,

    Azza......the brake upgrade cost me less than £250 (fitted myself) and it was some of the best money ive spent, the Ferodo DS2500 as others will also say have 100% bite from cold no waiting for warming up and belive me they will drag you back from the larger side of 140mph to 40mph with no problems at all, and with 0% fade, exelent value for money

    SaffronC70.......there great ent they, mine sounds like a jet fighter on full boost wicked piece of kit

    Poochingaround...after hamish took it for a test drive he thinks it could be 1 of a few things either drivetrain related or a slightly worn outer CV that doesnt knock on full lock

    Looks stonking m8!

    Not really seen too many square tail pipes since the original 850 T5.

    Hope it sounds as good as it looks.

    Hope you said hi to my car while you were at VT...(the light blue S60 looking broke! )

    Tailpipe sticks out a lot ?

    Might need trimming back a bit on the back box end pipe to make it look super sweet.
